<a href="profit.htm">Profit</a> is the difference between the <a href="price.htm">price</a> <a href="consum.htm">consum</a>er finally <a href="pay.htm">pay</a>s and the <a href="cost.htm">cost</a>s the <a href="own.htm">own</a>ers already paid, plus any depreciation and so forth.<br/>

<a href="profit.htm">Profit</a> usually separates from <a href="wage.htm">wage</a>s when <a href="proper.htm">proper</a>ty has multiple <a href="own.htm">own</a>ers because the <a href="own.htm">own</a>ers that do not <a href="work.htm">work</a> there will not <a href="want.htm">want</a> to <a href="pay.htm">pay</a> <a href="wage.htm">wage</a>s higher than market <a href="price.htm">price</a>.<br/>

But when <a href="proper.htm">proper</a>ty has few <a href="own.htm">own</a>ers, they can collude to claim all incoming <a href="pay.htm">pay</a>ments are <a href="wage.htm">wage</a>s.<br/>

For example, a solitary <a href="own.htm">own</a>er can hire as many <a href="work.htm">work</a>ers as he likes and then just claim all <a href="profit.htm">profit</a> as his <a href="own.htm">own</a> <a href="wage.htm">wage</a>.<br/>
